Flourishes is having their Christmas in July sale this week and Maki Jones is hostess this week at the Flourishes Timeless Tuesday blog challenge #128 and is asking us to get out our Christmas stamps and create! I am using Flourishes stamps, All That Glitters for the pretty images and Birthday Pennants for the sentiment. I used VersaMark to stamp the ornaments on the green panel.
I must make this a quick post as I am off to choir practice soon. This is W.C. Handy Festival week in my city and the city is full of music day and night. It is all kinds of music, from jazz to praise and worship, and many other kinds. I am practicing for a concert I will be singing in on Thursday night.
